Claude Green

Claude Green was born on January 14, 1950 in the United Kingdom. He graduated with an economics degree from King's College, Cambridge. In his early twenties he spent much of his free time wandering the streets of London with his 8mm camera. But making films was only a hobby at the time and he was soon clocking up stints at the National Coal Board, Glaxo and Reuters. After 25 years of working in the on-line information business he found himself as CEO of a Reuters-Dow Jones joint venture called Factiva. Aged 57, he quit the corporate world and enrolled in film school. Since then he has been writing, directing and producing films that include feature documentaries and narrative shorts ranging from educational to fun upbeat stories about life's interesting oddities. He is married to his long time companion, Anne and has two children, Daniel and Adrienne
